Maine...using a Sketch and Washi Tape
I am so happy with the way this layout came out. It is based on a sketch from
Sketches in Thyme. I knew I had to try this challenge since I have tons of
pictures for some events. After thinking about the design, I decided that I wanted
to use Washi Tape. The vision that I had for this page is pretty close to the
finished product. YAY!!
Once again, the title was given depth with my self made chipboard (layered the
same size letter cut from patterned paper and a hot cocoa box). The Washi Tape
flowers were created using a new technique I learned on Washi Wahoo [A video
tutorial that was hosted by Lain Ehmann from http://www.layoutaday.com/ and
presented by Monica Bradford from http://scrapinspired.com/ ]. They came out
cute and with a little practice, I am sure each one will improve.

I numbered the pictures to match the journal card. When I get around
to journaling, I will write something for each picture.
Happy Creating,
love this! the washi tape is so great for this sketch!

DeleteSuch a fun way to use washi, Leslie! I love the grid design and pretty flowers. Maine is one of my all-time favorite places to go. I missing living close enough to hop in the car and be there in less than an hour.
